The Age of the Unthinkable

Just a few years into a new century, we've arrived at a moment of unthinkable peril and incredible opportunity. In the New York Times bestseller The Age of the Unthinkable Ramo offers a new model for thriving in an era of the unexpected. Drawing upon history, economics, complexity theory, immunology and human psychology Ramo describes a landscape of inherent unpredictability and remarkable possibility. Finding surprising lessons from people as diverse as Silicon Valley titans, Islamic terror groups, spymasters and videogamers, he reveals a breathtaking, hopeful new framework for facing the challenges ahead.
